Evaluating Aviation Emission Inefficiencies and Reduction Challenges with Electric Flights ; Evaluating Aviation Emission Inefficiencies and Reduction Challenges with Electric Flights: Based on an analysis of flights from 2019 in the Dutch and French airspaces

International audience ; Inefficiencies in flight operations, like deviations and non-optimal flight speed or altitude, are directly linked to flight emission inefficiencies. Quantifying these emission inefficiencies and studying potential mitigation strategies is certainly beneficial for the sustainability of the aviation industry. In this paper, we analyze emission inefficiencies in Dutch and French airspaces using flight data from 2019. The emission inefficiency analysis quantifies the excess carbon emissions for each flight by comparing its emissions with a set of optimal alternative traje... Mehr ...
